Abstract
The Ti:sapphire-pumped optical parametric oscillator (OPO) based on noncritically phase-matched LiB3O5 (LBO) has been shown to be a versatile source of high-repetition-rate picosecond pulses for the near-infrared1. It is capable of providing signal and idler output pulses with durations of 1-2 ps over the continuous wavelength range 1-2.5 μm. Here we present results that demonstrate that this system is also capable of directly producing visible picosecond pulses in the green spectral region.
